Please please go see your family dr...I had something similar on and off and 2 weeks ago I had a TIA (mini stroke)...even if it turns out to be nothing or something very minor don't play around with it

I no longer have Aetna my husbands union contract went with with BCBS and I hate it but..Aetna was great I had to weight in 6 consecutive months before surgery I hear now mow insurance company's have gone down to 3 moths..in that 6 moths I had to either lose 10lbs or stop smoking I gained 20 but did quit smoking..the usual pre-op test pulmonary..stress test and a shrink...2 years of documented weight from my GP basically just had to have my weight on my chart at some point for 2 years...they approved me for surgery 7 days after it was submitted..my BMI was exactly 40 of it had been under then I had to prove 1 co-morbidity which I did have high bp..the one thing I really liked abt Aetna was that u can down load an app or go online and see everything how much you've paid toward ur deductible mine was $150 and how much you paid towards total pay out for the year...I ended up paying $50 for my surgery because all my requirements were such a low pay out...my ex husband has the UHC plan and so my kids are covered under his as primary and this co-payments were double and would barely cover anything..his was Rail road insurance

When I had my surgery last year I had Aetna Choice POS II and loved it!!...had no problems with billing or approval..my co-pays for fills where super cheap 10

Donna..Moroccan Oil is the one product I can't live without!!..love everything about it..the excess I have left on my hands after applying to my hair I rub on my elbows lol sounds weird but my elbows are super smooth!

Nioxin brand hair products are wonderful for thinning hair...I have used it on many clients..and have been using it myself

Happy to say I only have 32lbs to goal at a year!!

Thank you everyone!!

Thanks!!..I'm feeling better then I did in my 20's!!..and far more active

I told my 3 daughters age 17,13 & 7...the 13 year old told her step-mom and now everyone knows..so I have given up keeping it hush hush

I love mine I've had it for 2 years now...my tubes were tied after my 3 daughter so I'm not using it for bc...but to manage my insane periods..I don't even have one now!!..I think the worst part was having it places while on my period cause they were so heavy..just totally grossed me out..but I would do it again in a heartbeat

I'm the same..stuff I shouldn't eat and is usually a slider for everyone else gets stuck every time..to me it's a good thing it's not worth the pain..steak and other meat no problems getting down and staying

Yep had my gallbladder out a year before getting the band..didn't change or complicate anything

I wish mine had...just went for my 4th fill...I have 8cc's in my 11cc band..and still do not feel as if I'm in the green zone..best of luck to you!!

Here is one that I use very high in Protein u can tweak it as needed http://www.fitnessblender.com/v/article-detail/Delicious-Low-Fat-Quiche-Recipe-Crustless-Quiche-Recipe/4u/ I don't use the asparagus and I use just egg whites

Btw Love the Cubs..hubby is heading out to the Cubs convention tomorrow!

It's an energy drink and they also have a recovery one for after workouts..just be very careful with them my husband has been a hardcore gym rat for years and still only drinks a half bottle after a snack or protein bar

Have u tried a Redline..u can get them at GNC or even Walmart now..they come low carb or no sugar etc..and there is no carbonation and gives u one heck of a energy kick half a bottle after u eat is prob the best route

U will be fine I did the same thing..just get back on track..one slip is not going to bam make ur liver fatty again..ur human we all make mistakes

First you must read over thousands of post to make sure you are not asking a question someone else already has. If don't you will get chastised just saying

There are a lot of people that have a problem with your know it all attitude. So much so that there is an entire fb page dedicated to making fun of your tiny ridiculous bites. A place where many people go and ask the same question a 100 times without being judged or treated like an idiot

I didn't even know they were being taken out I was talking to the nurse the whole time..and the next thing I knew she said ok all done!!

I'm 37 had not had period since my IUD was placed in January..had my first one the day of surgery in September..my OB said it was from weight loss and my IUD shifted due to it...as long as I keep losing I'll deal with the period!!

I'm in central IL between Champaign and Chicago..I went to Silver Cross for surgery so Aetna would pay 100%
